Our Equipment

Freightliner Cascadias and ProStar International

Our fleet of trucks is composed primarily of Freightliner Cascadias. Our signature red trucks are designed to be lightweight for maximum payload and allow Gypsum to provide cost efficient services to our customers. The comfort of our drivers is of top priority to us, making the Cascadia the perfect fit for all drivers. Spacious cabins, noise-dampening insulation, and furnishings for Sirius XM radio, along with auxiliary heating and cooling, guarantee that our drivers stay well rested and up-beat while over the road. The Gypsum maintenance team works hard to ensure that all our equipment is maintained to the highest standard, assuring that our drivers are safe and loads are on time.

Owner John Wight continues to look for ways to grow and improve our team; with the purchase of new 2024 and 2025 equipment, it is clear that Gypsum Express is driving in the right direction.
